OK, INXS fans, I am desperate for info on the Prague locations for the INXS video Never Tear Us Apart. Do any of you know what route Michael walked in the video?? Some places are obvious (e.g., Charles Bridge), but most are not. I'm going in a week and want to retrace Michael's steps ;-) Also, do you know what building New Sensation, & Guns in the Sky were filmed in? Thanks for any help you can provide! I just joined here... neat site!

Hi TxTLC! We're always happy to meet other fans of INXS.

Congratulations on your trip to Prague. I'm sure you're going to have a wonderful time. As you said the interesting bridge shown many times in the video Never Tear Us Apart is The Charles Bridge. The opening scenes of the video with Michael and the boys walking near the river's edge, with the string trio and the tree branches overhanging the water are unforgettable. That river, which flows beneath The Charles Bridge is The Vltava. Here is a picture of the beautiful swans on the river, just like the ones in the video.

The part of Prague where the scenes were shot is called Staro Mesto, or the Old Town. This is where The Astronomical Clock and The Old Town Square, both shown at the end of the video, are found.


The ancient cemetery that Michael walks through while Kirk plays his Sax is The Old Jewish Cemetery,

The fantastic building where New Sensation was shot is a great example of the Art Nouveau style and it's called
The Municipal House. This picture shows the balcony where the band performed.

Here's a close up of part of the balcony showing the intricate and beautiful artwork and sculpture

I'm afraid I don't know where Guns In The Sky was shot. I have a vague memory of hearing one of the guys in the band say where that hallway was in an old interview, but I can't remember what they said.

Hope you have lots of fun on your trip. I'll make a post below with the three videos so we can all reminisce together!
